Michael wasn't asking for a space shuttle, but he *was* asking for "an
sgml editor", which implied to me an editor with some knowledge of
sgml notation. afaik The AntiEditor is the only freeware tool to do
this...
btw, xemacs is preferred over emacs since the xemacs "version 6"
implementation of DTD parsing can handle the DocBook DTD, whereas the
newer emacs "version 7" implementation barfs with some internal array
error when reading our docs after parsing the DTD. These are recent
results from my Mandrake/RedHat-6.1 Linux distro.
